Hm... can't really recall my sponsors to be honest, apart from my last one,
Jordan (CC'd). If non-sponsors also count, see other msgs in this thread.

Make Ubuntu better by e.g. fixing bugs as I stumble upon them, and have the
knowledge to fix it. I guess I won't find the time to provide much more than
a little help, and hence don't have big plans for main. Also I'm not too much
interested in the big window managers, in case you're wondering.
As an example, I would e.g. fix #226156 (just not right now, as I'm at work),
maybe that can give you an impression what I'm up to.

Hm... examples. I guess I'll point out two examples of contributions to Ubuntu
I'm particular proud of:
1) Together with Steve Langasek, I held a motu school session about library
packaging [2]. Spreading on knowledge is s.th. I'm generally always
interested in.
2) I took (and still take) care for the haskell tool chain in Ubuntu since
IIRC dapper. (To be clear: I mean toolchain... I wouldn't have managed e.g.
the ever growing number of haskell libraries for hardy single-handedly, but
fortunately Michael did rocking work there).

Just ask ;).
Cheers,
Stefan.
